It has been quite a few years: almost three living through a pandemic….This holiday season almost feels ‘normal ‘ again , whatever THAT means…Thinking back to the holiday season pre Covid: it has always been a time full of stress, expectations, family drama, FOMO, loneliness, busyness, isolation, too many people, spending pressures…yet somehow most of us just love this time of year.Add to this the extra foods and beverages we consume…the darker days….the colder wetter weather: maybe that is why we LOVE the festivities: I often think what would be like to live in the southern hemisphere and have nothing to distract us during the winter….they get to have Christmas and New Year during the summer: so crazy!But here we are: after Thanksgiving…the ultimate indulgent holiday…but a whole lot less pressure for most of us….and soon to follow, holiday gatherings, cookie exchanges and holiday cocktails, mulled wine, lovely glasses of port to end the evening: how to NOT gain a gazillion pounds and feel completely ‘gobsmacked’ as Candace love to say….how to cruise through with grace and not feel completely off of our game come January and the new year???Well, today we thought it would be fun to explore the world of ever expanding non-alcoholic beverages and see what our options are.. So join us as we banter back and forth and have a little, maybe a LOT , of fun while we sample some various beverages and see just what is out there for our drinking pleasure..plus we will look at some fun ways to EAT better as well…so much to talk about, as usual….but we do love to talk and learn together..so here we go!
